Erosion as a driving mechanism of intracontinental mountain growth [PDF]
, 1996 In nature, mountains can grow and remain as localized tectonic features over long periods of time (> 10 m.y.). By contrast, according to current knowledge of lithospheric rheology and neglecting surface processes, any intracontinental range with a width ...

Analysis of teleseismic P waves with a 5200-station array in Long Beach, California: Evidence for an abrupt boundary to Inner Borderland rifting [PDF]
, 2013 We analyze teleseismic P waves from four Mw ≥ 6.5 earthquakes recorded by a petroleum industry survey in Long Beach, California. The survey used a 2-D array with up to 5200 seismometers, 120 m mean spacing, and 7 – 10 km aperture.

Flexural bending of the Zagros foreland basin [PDF]
, 2017 We constrain and model the geometry of the Zagros foreland to assess the equivalent elastic thickness of the northern edge of the Arabian plate and the loads that have originated due to the Arabia–Eurasia collision.

Geophysical Research Letters, 2005 Pseudospectral 2D modeling of wave propagation provides a fresh look at receiver function data from the Hellenic subduction zone. It is shown that distinct Moho topography, which is suggested for this complex subduction environment from various geophysical data sets, can provide a conclusive explanation for previously observed “inverted” Moho phases in

Detailed Moho Topography Beneath the Southern Lhasa Terrane, Tibet by Receiver Functions
, 2008 The collision of the Indian and Asian plates since about 55Ma has created the most gigantic plateau with the thickest crust of the world. There is, however, no general agreement on the modes of the crustal thickening. Even the crustal thickness of the Tibetan plateau still remains poorly determined. While it is generally accepted that the Tibetan crust

Combining controlled-source seismology and local earthquake tomography to derive a 3-D crustal model of the western Alpine region [PDF]
, 2017 We present a newly developed approach of combining controlled-source seismology (CSS) and local earthquake tomography (LET) data to obtain a new 3-D crustal model of the western Alpine region.

Crustal imaging of the Northwest Himalaya and its foredeep region from teleseismic events
Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2016 Over 450 receiver functions from 8 broadband stations located in the Indo-Gangetic plain and Northwest Himalayan region are analyzed to examine the crustal properties across the contiguous region.
